Often in an analysis you have long-running steps that preprocess data or train models. If these steps have been run already (and you have stored the output somewhere like the `data/interim` directory), you don't want to wait to rerun them every time. We prefer [`make`](https://www.gnu.org/software/make/) for managing steps that depend on each other, especially the long-running ones. Make is a common tool on Unix-based platforms (and [is available for Windows]()). Following the [`make` documentation](https://www.gnu.org/software/make/), [Makefile conventions](https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Makefile-Conventions.html#Makefile-Conventions), and [portability guide](http://www.gnu.org/savannah-checkouts/gnu/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.69/html_node/Portable-Make.html#Portable-Make) will help ensure your Makefiles work effectively across systems. Here are [some](http://zmjones.com/make/) [examples](http://blog.kaggle.com/2012/10/15/make-for-data-scientists/) to [get started](https://web.archive.org/web/20150206054212/http://www.bioinformaticszen.com/post/decomplected-workflows-makefiles/). A number of data folks use `make` as their tool of choice, including [Mike Bostock](https://bost.ocks.org/mike/make/).
There are other tools for managing DAGs that are written in Python instead of a DSL (e.g., [Paver](http://paver.github.io/paver/#), [Luigi](http://luigi.readthedocs.org/en/stable/index.html), [Airflow](http://pythonhosted.org/airflow/cli.html), [Snakemake](https://bitbucket.org/snakemake/snakemake/wiki/Home), [Ruffus](http://www.ruffus.org.uk/), or [Joblib](https://pythonhosted.org/joblib/memory.html)). Feel free to use these if they are more appropriate for your analysis.
